No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

"Suicide?" Mrs. Yueyanghou had just returned to her room to look at the account book for a while, and raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard the steward's report.

"Yes, Master Hou sent someone to invite a doctor." The steward said respectfully, "Madam..." The steward looked at the mistress in front of him with some worry. Master Hou will not blame madam, right?Also, he committed suicide on the first day after entering the door, and those people in Shangyonghuang City still don't know how to arrange for his wife.

Mrs. Yueyang Hou said: "Look carefully, don't really die." Death is boring.

"Ma'am, where is the Marquis..."

Mrs. Yueyang Hou said: "Don't worry about it, just give him whatever he wants."

"Yes, the old slave is retiring."

After the steward went out, the girl standing beside Mrs. Yueyanghou said in a low voice: "Madam, do you want to..." Mrs. Yueyanghou glanced back at her, and said coldly: "Don't let yourself go for those scumbags. With a fishy body, Han must live well. She dares to disgust me, and I will make her live a miserable life!"

The girl said: "Then... what if she dies by herself?"

Mrs. Yueyang Hou flipped through two pages of the account book before slowly saying: "Do you really think she can shoot to death? If she dies, those two children will fall into my hands. If you are her, don't you worry?"

The girl thought carefully about that Han family's behavior, and she really didn't seem like a person who could easily trust others.

"So, it's a bitter trick?"

Mrs. Yueyang Hou said: "He has some skills. I hope Master Hou will not let me down. Since he wants to be a lover, I will help him."

Half an hour later, the voice from outside the door made Mrs. Yueyang Hou look up from the ledger.

"Master Hou, Madam is busy, please allow your servants to go in and report."

"No need!" Jiang Guanmu said in a deep voice.

"But Lord Hou, ma'am..." The girl still wanted to stop her, but Jiang Guanmu had already pushed her away and walked in.

Mrs. Yueyang Hou waved to the girl who followed, signaling her to step back first.

"What's the matter, Lord Hou?"

Looking at his wife with a calm face, Jiang Guanmu felt an evil fire rise from the bottom of his heart and hit his forehead.

He clenched his fist hanging on Shengce, gritted his teeth and said, "Xi'er committed suicide, are you satisfied?"

Mrs. Yueyang Hou raised her eyebrows, looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Did I force her to commit suicide? Or did I force Lord Hou to let her follow you without a name? I made those two children illegitimate at birth." ?”

"You!" Jiang Guanmu lowered his face, took a deep breath and said, "That's always a fate, how can you be so calm?"

Mrs. Yueyang Hou said: "Master Hou has never seen a dead person on the battlefield? Those of the enemy, and those of your comrades. Han's life is more precious than others? Even if gold is precious, what does it have to do with me? You might as well just say it directly , why did you come to me?"

Jiang Guanmu was silent for a moment, "Do we have to talk like this?"

Mrs. Yueyanghou just smiled and said nothing.

"Okay!" Jiang Guanmu took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said, "Then I'll just say it straight, Xi'er, mother and son will stay in the mansion to recuperate, and what I told you before... tomorrow morning, I will Ask the regent personally. Chao'er and Qin'er are also my children, I cannot let them be ridiculed."

"What if I disagree?"

Jiang Guanmu took a deep look at her and said, "I am the Marquis of Yueyang."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Guanmu turned and walked out.

Mrs. Yueyanghou looked at the back of him going out with deep eyes, and after a long while said calmly: "Jiang Guanmu, you forced me to do this."

In the early morning, Mr. Luo went into the palace to offer incense to the Empress Dowager, and then sat with Princess Changling in the warm pavilion next to the imperial study to discuss the Empress Dowager's entry into the Imperial Mausoleum and the upcoming Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.

Just as the two of them were saying this, there was a sudden drumbeat outside.

Both of them were taken aback, where could there be such a loud drum in the palace?

"It's outside the palace." Luo Junyao quickly figured it out, and said, "The direction of the palace gate."

Princess Changling suddenly realized, "It's Dengwen Drum!"

Dengwen Drum is a huge grievance drum set up at the gate of the palace.Theoretically everyone can knock, but in reality very few people dare to knock.Because for ordinary people, the price of beating the drum itself is not small.

The two looked at each other, and both stood up: something big happened!
When the Dengwen drum sounded, Xie Yan was looking at Jiang Guanmu who was kneeling on one knee in the hall.Xie Cheng sat on the side and glanced at his uncle with some caution. He was keenly aware that the uncle was not in a good mood.

Then he couldn't help but gave Jiang Guanmu a hard look.

This is Ah Che's father, and Ah Xuan secretly told him that Ah Che's father did something very bad to Ah Che and Mrs. Yueyanghou.

He hated this Marquis Yueyang.

The other people in the hall also frowned, looking at Jiang Guanmu as if they were looking at a lunatic.

Jiang Guanmu has been guarding Yanzhou for many years, just in time for this Gaoyu invasion and made military exploits. After returning to Beijing, the prince will definitely reward him.Yueyang Hou's mansion is just around the corner to a higher level, but this Jiang Guanmu wants to use his own merits to exchange an unknown woman's identity and imperial title?
Doesn't he feel that he is very affectionate?

Yesterday, the news about Jiang Guanmu taking a woman to ride a horse in the street has spread throughout Shangyong, and Mrs. Yueyang Hou didn't make a fuss, she really has a good temper.

It's just that Jiang Guanmu can't rely on his wife's good temper and just bully others like this, Mrs. Yueyang Hou's natal family is not dead yet.

"What do you think?" Xie Yan asked lightly.

Everyone immediately started arguing with each other.

The censors naturally pointed their guns at Jiang Guanmu, from court laws to clan etiquette, from propriety, righteousness and shame to folk customs.He almost scolded Jiang Guanmu as a heinous scum.

Of course, some people have considered the feasibility from the perspective of cost, but the premise is that Mrs. Yueyanghou agrees to the woman's entry.

At this moment, Dengwen's drum was sounded.

After a while, the guard came in hurriedly to report, "My lord, there is a woman at the gate of the palace beating the Dengwen drum! This is the lady's petition."

The servant quickly went down and took the folder and handed it to Xie Yan. Xie Yan opened it for a few glances, and glanced meaningfully at Jiang Guanmu who was still kneeling on the ground without raising his head.

"Bring her in."

"Yes, my lord."

The servant cupped his hands and left, and the originally noisy hall became quiet.

People have temporarily lost interest in Jiang Guanmu, and now they are even more curious about what kind of woman is so bold that she dares to beat the Dengwen drum?
Not long after, a plainly dressed woman entered the hall under the supervision of two guards.

Many officials who looked back couldn't help gasping.

"The minister's wife, Mrs. Jiang Xu, the Marquis of Yueyang, sued Jiang Guanmu to suspend his wife and remarry, privately accept the daughter of the criminal record, and force him to send a wife. I ask the prince to make the decision."
